Re: Optimize geometry of this part frooze my workstation

It was a native Solid Edge file, in fact the file I have uploaded it is what I have downloaded from Tracepart.Haven't tried to download it in a neutral format, my post was more to know if it was my workstation or a Solid Edge issue.

In my opinion it should be investigated by GTAC

P.S.: downloaded in Step format, imported and optimized without problems.

Re: Optimize geometry of this part frooze my workstation

Just because the format you downloaded was a Solid Edge .par file type does not automatically mean that the Solid Edge file is a native Solid Edge file -- the data could have still been imported prior to you downloading the .par version.

I was able to successfully Optimize this file in ST10 without any issues.

Sorry Dave but I don't get the point of your message. Somebody asked me in what format I have downloaded it and that's the one.

In my opinion a tool in the current Solid Edge release that frooze the whole PC should be investigated.

Re: Optimize geometry of this part frooze my workstation

You said it was a "native Solid Edge" file -- it is not native -- it has still been imported from somewhere, you just don't have access to the original file format that it was imported from. That is not the same thing as stating it is a native file.

As for reporting the issue, then please follow the proper process you normally use for submitting issues. In the meantime as you have ST10 and can successfully import into ST10, after optimizing in ST10 did you then try exporting out to a Parasolid and then reimporting the Parasolid back into ST9? Although there may be an issue with ST9 , this workflow should still give you a working solution that will be faster than submitting an IR to GTAC and waiting on a fix from development so tha tyou can them optimize succsefully in ST9.
